How Can I Possibly Be Expected to Handle...a Ferris Bueller Comeback?! The Scoop on Matthew Broderick's Super Bowl Ad

I'm having an '80s flashback moment this morning as news surfaces that Matthew Broderick will be reprising his role as Ferris Bueller from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off in a Super Bowl ad next month.

An ad for the ad (yep, there is such a thing) has hit the Internet and it features Sarah Jessica Parker's actor hubby as the now-older iconic character. He's in what appears to be a hotel room, wearing a bathrobe, and walks over to the window, opens the curtains and says: “How can I handle work on a day like today?” The line is a play on the flick's famous quote: “How can I possibly be expected to handle school on a day like this?”

The clip ends with 2/5/12, the date of the Super Bowl. There's no indication what product or company Matthew is doing the ad for.

I can only dream it's a SEQUEL. I can't tell you how many times I've watched the movie over the years. Many more times than that I've dropped quotes from it. ("Bueller? Bueller?" "My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.") We even included Ferris' sweater vest in our Ugly Sweater photo gallery that we did over the holidays.

Until Super Bowl Sunday, when we know what the pleasant return of Ferris Bueller is all about, I'll leave you with this clip. "It's one of my personal favorites and I'd like to dedicate it to a young man who doesn't think he's seen anything good today..."

Did you love Ferris Bueller's Day Off as much as I did? What is your favorite line from the movie? Let's talk FB below.
